Sometimes you have to give credit where credit is due. Even though we all like to roast Coach K at all costs, it has become clear over the last year that he and USA President Jerry Colangelo have learned the lessons of what it takes to win in the realm of International Basketball. Thus we found out yesterday that
Tayshaun Prince will be on the roster at the Olympic qualifier this summer in South America. Prince was brought onto the team as a defensive stopper and is exactly the type of player that this team has lacked in recent years. He can guard shorter wings and longer athletic types and gives the team a versatile defender to put on the other team's hottest scorer. We congratulate Tayshaun for making the team and now have a reason to cheer again for USA Basketball.....and overlook the fact that Coach K is on the sideline
